Silence quickly enveloped the room as soon as the couples left.
"I made them feel bad, did I?" Ram stared at the shut door with a heavy sigh. "Those kids…"
Bear smiled helplessly. "Can you blame them?"
"At least you can walk her down the aisle," Fig cheered up. "You and Bear can… what about Wolf, though? I'm sure he would want to walk her down the aisle too."
"Aha!" To avoid the depressing mood from continuing, Axel walked back to them with a wide grin. "Uncle Ram, didn't you say the match between you and Wolf has no bet? How about we bet that whoever wins can walk her down the aisle?"
"Can I join?" Bear raised a hand, but Axel shook his head.
"Two can walk the bride down the aisle, so automatically, the first spot is yours," Axel explained in a knowing tone, and no one disputed that. If Bear joined the brawl, he would tie Ram and Wolf together without breaking a sweat.
